Question here as I can’t remember. Iif your coupon is rounded up to $1.00 and the item you are buying is less than, do we get to apply the overage to the rest of our items? I know my Albertson’s did this but don’t know if there are any rules on this. Thanks:-)

At all my stores (4 around my area) if the coupon is over the price of the item your buying the computer automaticly reduce the coupon to the price of the item, this is been happening since last wensday and one of the stores alouds 3 transactions per day with doubles, and no more than 4 equal coupons per day, the computer did not acepted more than 4, do anybody Knows what is going on???????????????

My store will allow the overage as long as the overage is NOT the result of doubling or rounding. So if you have $1/1 coupon for a .75 item, they will credit you .25. If you have a .50 coupon for a .75 item during round up, they will not give you the .25 overage from rounding.

I believe the reason for the computer rejecting them after 4 coupons is that so many coupons now have that restriction on them. I believe it is just to help the stores comply with the common restriction. Otherwise cashiers would spend too much time reading the fine print on all the coupons. But most stores are good at allowing an unlimited number of separate transactions in a day, so while it is kind of a pain, it can be done.

Couple questions about pre-ordering.. is there a certain amount that you should be requesting when you pre-order? Is calling for 8 ok? Also, like with the bounty deal, the coupons say only 4 is there any way to pre order and be able to get more then 4? My store is ALWAYS sold out when round ups happen. Any help would be great, thanks!

Billie Joe : I don’t know on pre ordering that little. Mine is kind if sticklers unless over 20 of the same item.

Heather : I know we get trucks on Wednesday, Fridays, and Sundays. I always pre order on the Monday before the round up so we have 3 trucks for it to possibly be on. I’ve only had one time that my pre order NEVER showed up. For the most part it always shows up. Also become chummy with the ordering manager so when doublers come out you can pre order on the Tuesday before. That insures they will arrive on the truck for me the Friday before doublers. I then go in on Friday morning and check to see if my shipment came in and make sure they clearly label it as, “CUSTOMER HOLD TILL SUNDAY” and I go back on Sunday at 6am when they open to guarantee it being there. Hope this helps. My friends and I usually get 20 of everything we find at free or stock up prices. So when we place our order we do it together and once I’ve checked with them I order 60 or more of that quantity. It helps cause then there’s not multiple holds.
